Preserving Rural Businesses

Business School’s RedTire Program Preserves Rural Businesses

Red Tire Program

For the last five years, a University of Kansas (KU) School of Business program has been keeping open the doors of rural businesses across Kansas.

The RedTire program, short for Redefine Your Retirement, works to sustain businesses by linking retiring business owners to alumni of Kansas Regents institutions. The program also provides financial projections and valuations for the businesses, helps negotiate a fair transaction for both parties and delivers post-transaction counseling to better ensure business success and job preservation.

RedTire is an initiative of the KU Center for Entrepreneurship, housed within the KU School of Business.

Recognizing the need to address the shuttering of small- and medium-sized businesses because of a lack of successor management, the center launched the program in 2012, though it’s been in the planning stages since 2009.

“Without the RedTire program, regional communities would lose essential services, tax bases and diminish the quality of life, particularly in rural areas,” says Wally Meyer, director of the RedTire program and entrepreneurship programs at the KU School of Business.

Since its launch, RedTire has received national attention, including from Forbes.com, which referred to the program as a model for sustaining small businesses across the U.S.

Standridge took ownership of the business in 2015 as part of RedTire, an initiative of the KU Center for Entrepreneurship that matches qualified graduates with retiring business owners.


Last October, RedTire received a 2016 Award of Excellence from the University Economic Development (UEDA) during its Annual Summit, in Roanoke, Virginia.

The program earned the honor in the UEDA’s Place category, one of five categories recognized by the Awards of Excellence program. The awards recognize organizations focused on developing economic prosperity in their communities and beyond.

Initiatives were judged on factors of sustainability, replicability, originality and effect of the program or initiative. Leading entries were selected by attendees of the summit after going through a six-month process that included application, peer review and live presentations.

“We were thrilled to be recognized as a nationwide best practice but equally pleased to be able to assist in preserving employment and the quality of life in communities in Kansas and the Midwest,” Meyer says.

The RedTire program currently is assisting 91 businesses. Since its inception, it has closed 27 transactions, saving more than 200 jobs in Kansas.

Some of RedTire matches in Kansas communities completed in recent years include:

• Funk Pharmacy: Concordia
• Yates Center Dental LLC: Yates Center
• Duis Meat Processing Inc.: Salina and Concordia
• Atchison Animal Clinic: Atchison
• Hoisington Veterinary Hospital: Hoisington
• Flint Hills Veterinary Hospital: Junction City
• Kansas Publishing Ventures: Hillsboro

The program is a free service and is financed by the KU School of Business and grant support from the U.S. Department of Commerce and the U.S. Economic Development Administration.

  4. Thanks for the advice on credit repair on this blog. A few things i would tell people will be to give up this mentality they will buy right now and pay later. As a society most people tend to do that for many things. This includes vacations, furniture, as well as items we’d like. However, you’ll want to separate the wants out of the needs. When you are working to improve your credit rating score you really have to make some sacrifices. For example you may shop online to save money or you can check out second hand outlets instead of high priced department stores regarding clothing.

  32. The fish collectors hoping to save rare species from extinction
    [url=https://phanfom.com]phantom wallet[/url]
    In the rural town of Petersham, Massachusetts, 78-year-old Peter George keeps 1,000 fish in his basement.

    “Baseball, sex, fish,” he says, listing his life’s great loves. “My single greatest attribute is that I am passionate about things. That sort of defines me.”

    All of George’s fish are endangered Rift Lake cichlids: colorful, freshwater fish native to the Great Lakes of East Africa. Inside his 42 tanks, expertly squeezed into a single subterranean room, the fish shimmer under artificial lights, knowing nothing of the expansive waters in which their ancestors once swam, thousands of miles away.

    Due to pollution, climate change and overfishing, freshwater fish are thought to be the second most endangered vertebrates in the world. In Lake Victoria, a giant lake shared between Kenya, Uganda and Tanzania, over a quarter of endemic species, including countless cichlids, are either critically endangered or extinct.

    But for some species, there is still hope. A community of rare fish enthusiasts collect endangered species of freshwater fish from the lakes and springs of East Africa, Mexico and elsewhere, and preserve them in their personal fish tanks in the hope that they might one day be reintroduced in the wild.

    “I’m a hard ass,” George says. “There is hope.”
    Insurance
    George has been collecting fish since 1948 when, as a four-year-old in the Bronx, he would look after his grandmother’s rainbow fish. He soon developed “multiple tank syndrome” – a colloquial term used by fish collectors to denote the spiral commonly experienced after acquiring one’s first tank, which involves the sufferer buying many more tanks within a short space of time. He has not stopped collecting since.

    Now, George sees himself as a conservationist; his tanks contain what is known as “insurance populations” – populations of endangered fish that are likely to go extinct in their natural habitats. He believes that when the time is right, they can be taken from his collection and returned to their homes. “I would never accept the fact that they couldn’t be reintroduced,” he says.

  34. The world’s largest architectural model captures New York City in the ’90s
    [url=https://aerdorne.org]aerodrome finance[/url]
    The Empire State building stands approximately 15 inches tall, whereas the Statue of Liberty measures at just under two inches without its base. At this scale, even ants would be too big to represent people in the streets below.

    These lifelike miniatures of iconic landmarks can be found on the Panorama — which, at 9,335 square feet, is the largest model of New York City, meticulously hand-built at a scale of 1:1,200. The sprawling model sits in its own room at the Queens Museum, where it was first installed in the 1960s, softly rotating between day and night lighting as visitors on glass walkways are given a bird’s eye view of all five boroughs of the city.

    To mark the model’s 60th anniversary, which was celebrated last year, the museum has published a new book offering a behind-the-scenes look at how the Panorama was made. Original footage of the last major update to the model, completed in 1992, has also gone on show at the museum as part of a 12-minute video that features interviews with some of the renovators.

    The Queens Museum’s assistant director of archives and collections, Lynn Maliszewski, who took CNN on a visit of the Panorama in early March, said she hopes the book and video will help to draw more visitors and attention to the copious amount of labor — over 100 full-time workers, from July 1961 to April 1964 — that went into building the model.

    “Sometimes when I walk in here, I get goosebumps, because this is so representative of dreams and hopes and family and struggle and despair and excitement… every piece of the spectrum of human emotion is here (in New York) happening at the same time,” said Maliszewski. “It shows us things that you can’t get when you’re on the ground.”
    Original purpose
    The Panorama was originally built for the 1964 New York World’s Fair, then the largest international exhibition in the US, aimed at spotlighting the city’s innovation. The fair was overseen by Robert Moses, the influential and notorious urban planner whose highway projects displaced hundreds of thousands New Yorkers. When Moses commissioned the Panorama, which had parts that could be removed and redesigned to determine new traffic patterns and neighborhood designs, he saw an opportunity to use it as a city planning tool.

    Originally built and revised with a margin of error under 1%, the model was updated multiple times before the 1990s, though it is now frozen in time. According to Maliszewski, it cost over $672,000 to make in 1964 ($6.8 million in today’s money) and nearly $2 million (about $4.5 million today) was spent when it was last revised in 1992.

  35. Thank you for another magnificent article. The place else may just anybody get that type
    of information in such a perfect method of writing?

    I have a presentation next week, and I’m on the look for such info.

  36. Heya i’m for the first time here. I found this board and I find It truly useful & it helped me
    out a lot. I hope to give something back and help others like you helped me.

  37. Hello there, There’s no doubt that your website could be having browser compatibility issues. Whenever I look at your website in Safari, it looks fine however, when opening in IE, it has some overlapping issues. I simply wanted to provide you with a quick heads up! Aside from that, wonderful website!

  38. A librarian ran off with a yacht captain in the summer of 1968. It was the start of an incredible love story
    [url=https://metanask.net]metamask[/url]
    The first time Beverly Carriveau saw Bob Parsons, she felt like a “thunderbolt” passed between them.

    “This man stepped out of a taxi, and we both just stared at each other,” Beverly tells CNN Travel today. “You have to remember, this is the ‘60s. Girls didn’t stare at men. But it was a thunderbolt.”

    It was June 1968. Beverly was a 23-year-old Canadian university librarian on vacation in Mazatlan, Mexico, with a good friend in tow.

    Beverly had arrived in Mazatlan that morning. She’d been blown away by the Pacific Ocean views, the colorful 19th-century buildings, the palm trees.

    Now, Beverly was browsing the hotel gift store, admiring a pair of earrings, when she looked up and spotted the man getting out of the taxi. The gift shop was facing the parking lot, and there he was.

    “I was riveted,” says Beverly. “He was tall, handsome…”

    Eventually, Beverly tore away her gaze, bought the earrings and dashed out of the store.

    “We locked eyes so long, I was embarrassed,” she says.

    No words had passed between them. They hadn’t even smiled at each other. But Beverly felt like she’d revealed something of herself. She felt like something had happened, but she couldn’t describe it.
    Beverly rushed to meet her friend, still feeling flustered. Over dinner in the hotel restaurant, Beverly confided in her friend about the “thunderbolt” moment.

    “I told my girlfriend, ‘Something just happened to me. I stared at this man, and I couldn’t help myself.’”

    Then, the server approached Beverly’s table.

    “He said, ‘I have some wine for you, from a man over there.’”

    The waiter was holding a bottle of white wine, indicating at the bar, which was packed with people.

    As a rule, Beverly avoided accepting drinks from men in bars. She never felt especially comfortable with the power dynamic — plus, she had a long-term partner back in Canada.

    “I had a serious boyfriend at home and thought my life was on course,” she says.

  39. Xavier completes thrilling comeback, Mount St. Mary’s advances as men’s First Four comes to a close
    [url=https://chamgenov-io.org]changenow exchange[/url]
    Wednesday saw the men’s First Four come to a close which means only one thing: the 64-team bracket is officially set following No. 11 Xavier’s thrilling come from behind win over No. 11 Texas and No. 16 Mount St. Mary’s victory over No. 16 American in Dayton, Ohio.

    The Musketeers trailed by as many as 13 points, but their offense came alive in the second half behind guard Marcus Foster and forward Zach Freemantle to down the Longhorns 86-80.

    The senior Foster scored a team-high 22 points while Freemantle, on his way to 15 points, threw down a dunk with a second left to seal the comeback win and ignite the fans at UD Arena, which is just over 50 miles away from campus in Cincinnati, Ohio.

    With just under four minutes remaining, Xavier went on an 8-2 run to take a 78-74 lead, their first since the early going of the first half.

    Musketeers head coach Sean Miller crowned Wednesday’s game as “one of the best” he’s been a part of.

    “I thought we were dead in the water two different times,” Miller told the truTV broadcast after the game. “But that’s the one thing about our team — the resiliency of our group has always won out for us. Just when you thought we weren’t gonna make the tournament, we kept winning. Even in this game, just when you’re like, ‘It’s not gonna work out,’ we have a funny way of staying with it.”

    The Longhorns did not go down without a fight as guard Tre Johnson scored a game-high 23 points in the loss.

    Xavier will face No. 6 Illinois in the first round on Friday at the Fiserv Forum in Milwaukee.

  54. Накрутка отзывов: Этические аспекты и последствия
    В современном мире онлайн-бизнеса отзывы пользователей стали важнейшим элементом в формировании репутации компании. Они влияют на решения потенциальных клиентов и, соответственно, на доходы предприятий. Неудивительно, что некоторые компании и индивидуальные предприниматели прибегают к накрутке отзывов. Однако эта практика вызывает серьезные этические вопросы и может иметь негативные последствия.
    [url=https://vk.com/wall-156404619_12958]Накрутка отзывов[/url]
    Что такое накрутка отзывов?
    Накрутка отзывов – это процесс создания фальшивых отзывов для искусственного улучшения репутации компании или продукта. Эти отзывы могут быть положительными, чтобы повысить рейтинг, или отрицательными, чтобы понизить рейтинг конкурентов. Существуют разные способы накрутки отзывов:

    Создание фальшивых аккаунтов: Люди или боты создают множество аккаунтов на платформах отзывов и оставляют положительные комментарии.
    Купленные отзывы: Оплата реальным пользователям за публикацию положительных отзывов.
    Манипуляция реальными отзывами: Например, удаление отрицательных отзывов или искусственное выделение положительных.
    Этические последствия
    Обман потребителей: Накрутка отзывов вводит потребителей в заблуждение, заставляя их полагаться на недостоверную информацию при принятии решений о покупке.
    Недобросовестная конкуренция: Использование фальшивых отзывов для дискредитации конкурентов нарушает принципы честной конкуренции, подрывает доверие к рынку и может привести к правовым последствиям.
    Урон репутации: Когда накрутка становится явной, это может нанести серьёзный урон репутации компании. Потребители начинают воспринимать компанию как нечестную, что значительно снижает уровень доверия и лояльности.
    Правовые аспекты
    Наряду с этическими, накрутка отзывов также имеет правовые последствия. Во многих странах она рассматривается как форма мошенничества, и компании, уличенные в этой практике, могут столкнуться с штрафами и даже судебными исками. Законы, регулирующие коммерческую практику, становятся всё более строгими. Платформы отзывов также активно борются с накруткой, применяя алгоритмы, способные выявлять и блокировать фальшивые отзывы, улучшая таким образом доверие к своему контенту.

    Как избежать негативных последствий
    Честная стратегия: Компаниям следует фокусироваться на улучшении качества своих продуктов и обслуживания клиентов. Это лучший способ заслужить искренние положительные отзывы.
    Клиентская поддержка: Активная работа с реальными отзывами, даже отрицательными, способствует улучшению репутации. Ответы на замечания и жалобы демонстрируют заботу о клиентах и желание улучшаться.
    Прозрачность: Создание доверительных отношений с клиентами через прозрачные практики ведения бизнеса способствует повышению лояльности и укреплению репутации без необходимости в накрутке.
    В заключение, накрутка отзывов, хотя и может показаться эффективным способом быстрого повышения рейтинга, является неустойчивой и потенциально разрушительной практикой. Долгосрочный успех компании строится на честности, качестве и уважении к потребителям.
